Chapter 1988 Taishan Arrives
Zhu Ping'an sent the Zhejiang Chief Envoy, the Prosecution Envoy and the General Commander out of the yamen and watched them leave.
When meeting them, Zhu Ping'an also gave face to Mr. Zhang, the leader of Zu Lao. He thanked him for his care in his words, which made Mr. Zhang's face glowing and made Zhejiang's chief envoy and the commander-in-chief envious.
Zhu Pingan has been watching in Zhejiang since he was demoted, and he is very familiar with Zhejiang. Through in-depth conversations with the three people, he has a better understanding of Zhejiang.
The current situation in Zhejiang is extremely serious, and the Japanese invasion is extremely serious, much more serious than the Japanese invasion in South Zhili.
Wang Zhi, the great Japanese pirate, is the culprit behind the serious situation in Zhejiang and the serious culprit of the Japanese invasion in Zhejiang.
At first, Wang Zhi had great expectations for the imperial court, imagining that the imperial court would agree to his request for "trade". On the premise that the local government acquiesced to the private market, Wang Zhi had been working hard to control the Japanese pirates under his command (although he could not completely control them) ), and also pacified (swallowed) Chen Sipan and other Japanese pirates who were burning, killing and looting in Zhejiang. The Japanese pirates situation in Zhejiang is still relatively controllable.
However, now, Wang Zhi's fantasy of doing business has been shattered, and he has torn off the disguise. From trying to control his subordinates, he now drives the Japanese pirates under his subordinates to attack everywhere, burning, killing and looting all over Zhejiang, in an attempt to force the imperial court to use force. Yielded and agreed to his request for trade.
Japanese pirates are out of control in Zhejiang.
The Japanese pirates under Wang Zhi's command are far beyond the comparison of Xu Hai. The Japanese pirates under his command include local Chinese bandits, Japanese samurai ronin, red-haired Yi musketeers, etc. There are as many as 100,000 Japanese pirates under his command and under his control. .
Today, Wang Zhi has occupied Zhoushan Ligang as his nest. He has more than 300 Japanese ships under his command, not to mention several giant ships, with a fleet of 120 paces and a capacity of 2,000 people. You can gallop on it.
Naval battles, land battles, and strength are all at the level of a giant.
The well-deserved king of the sea.
Not only that, Wang Zhi also has a base on the five islands of Japan, which is almost equivalent to a famous name in Japan.
As for the health centers in Zhejiang, they were old, weak, sick and disabled, and lacked training. Whenever they encountered Japanese pirates under Wang Zhi's command, they were beaten and had to rely on the city to hold on. Smaller county towns were often attacked by Japanese pirates. Fucheng was also attacked by Japanese pirates, but it was not occupied by Japanese pirates for a period of time like Jiaxing.
The Japanese pirates under Wang Zhi's command broke into Jinhua Mansion some time ago. After burning, killing and looting, they retreated.
Speaking of Jiaxing, Jiaxing is also one of the eleven prefectures in Zhejiang. It was conquered by Xu Hai some time ago and occupied for more than half a month. It was known that it was "recaptured" by Zhao Chong a few days ago.
North of Jiaxing is Songjiang Prefecture in South Zhili. Tuolin and other places in Songjiang Prefecture were occupied by Xu Hai as nests.
The Japanese pirates under Xu Hai not only plundered southern Zhili, but also the Jiaxing Prefecture in Zhejiang Province near Tuolin was within their plundering range.
So, the most important Japanese plague in Zhejiang is the Wangzhi Japanese, and the secondary Japanese Japanese is the Xuhai Japanese.
With these two Japanese invaders, the situation in Zhejiang is much more corrupt than that in South Zhili.
Now, the pressure is on Zhu Pingan.
Just now, when Zhu Pingan met with the Zhejiang Chief Envoy, the Provost Envoy and the Capital Commander, Zhu Pingan arranged a task for the Zhejiang Capital Commander to build a beacon tower in the area under his jurisdiction. , Fengdun and other facilities Inspect the facilities and repair them immediately if they are found to be damaged. If there are no early warning facilities such as beacon towers and beacon piers within ten miles, add them immediately and arrange for dedicated personnel to be on duty. Once traces of Japanese pirates are found, beacon fire and smoke warning facilities will be lit immediately.
There is no way to deal with Wang Zhi, Xu Hai and other Japanese pirates at the moment. We can only give early warning to reduce losses.
Not long after Zhu Pingan sent away the Zhejiang Chief Envoy, the Prosecution Envoy and the Capital Commander, there was a report from the police and someone else came.
The person who came this time was not an outsider, but Zhu Ping'an's father-in-law.
My father-in-law came from the south with Li Shu’s two brothers before Li Shu gave birth.
"Taishan has arrived? Go and tell your wife, I will greet you at the front door first." When Zhu Ping'an learned that his father-in-law was coming from the south, he sent someone to the backyard to tell Li Shu, while he trotted to the front door to greet him.
“I didn’t know Taishan was coming, but my son-in-law is late.” Zhu Pingan trotted to the door and said hello to Rich Man Li.
"I've met the eldest brother, the second brother..." Zhu Pingan went on to say hello to the two brothers-in-law.
Rich Man Li is still as wealthy as ever, with a big belly, wearing a satin cotton coat and a black bearskin cloak.
Two elder brothers-in-law The two elder brothers-in-law are much fatter than the last time they met, and they are vaguely looking like Rich Man Li.
Behind them were a fleet of horse-drawn carriages as far as the eye could see. There must be at least forty or fifty vehicles. Each carriage was protected by two big and round guards on both sides. The guards hung swords on their waists and also Some carry bows and arrows.
I can feel a fierce aura from a distance.
Several of the carriages are enlarged and widened versions. Each carriage has two horses pulling the carriage. The ruts are deep and the horses pulling the carriage are panting from exhaustion. The carriage was covered with felt cloth, and it was unknown what was inside.
"Okay, don't pay me any more gifts. Take us to see Shu'er quickly. My precious daughter must be suffering."
Rich Man Li waved his hand impatiently and looked at Zhu as usual. Ping An is not pleasing to the eye, the eyes are not eyes, and the nose is not a nose. Looking at Zhu Ping An is like seeing a thief who stole cabbage in his own vegetable patch.
Even though Zhu Ping'an has been promoted to the right minister of the Ministry of War and the governor of Zhejiang, he still failed to change the attitude of wealthy man Li.
However, when Rich Man Li mentioned Li Shu, the doting in his eyes almost became real, and it really hurt his heart.
"Let's go, brother-in-law, I haven't seen my little sister for a long time. If my little sister is wronged, we can't forgive you."
The two brothers-in-law put their arms around Zhu Pingan's shoulders, one on the left and the other on the right. In an instant, Zhu Pingan felt like he was being held hostage by two bears.
"Don't worry, eldest brother and second brother, I won't, I will never let Sister Li be wronged." Zhu Ping'an grinned at the two men's pinches and quickly expressed his stance.
"It's not up to you to decide whether my little sister will be wronged. If my little sister has the final say, we have to see with our own eyes."
Two brothers-in-law half held hostage and half He held Zhu Ping'an and walked into the yard.
"Dad, eldest brother, second brother" At this moment, Li Shu's surprised shout came from the yard.
Then
I saw Li Shu, with red eyes and a big belly, walking excitedly with the support of Hua'er and Qin'er.
Seeing Rich Man Li from a distance, Li Shu opened her arms and threw herself into Rich Man Li's arms, crying with red eyes.
"Nini, daddy's darling, you must be suffering these days with such a big belly." Rich Man Li burst into tears instantly.
"Huh?! My little sister is really wronged."
Seeing that my little sister cried when she saw her family, the two brothers-in-law immediately lifted Zhu Ping'an up, one on the left and the other on the right, and they were ready to help her in the next minute. (End of this chapter)
